Politics › Re: Fashola Marvels At Hawkers’ Skills In Traffic by drnoel: 7:02pm On Jul 24, 2013
lekanolas: Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, yesterday marveled at the ingenuity and the entrepreneur skills displayed by highway hawkers in some Nigerian cities, especially Lagos.

He described the traits displayed almost simultaneously while selling on the highways as misused skills.

The governor said there is nowhere in the world where youths dominated the highways with such entrepreneurship skills.

He said: “I have travelled a little bit and I am not sure if there are many places in the world where we will find young people, running through traffic, balancing their wares on their heads, chase the moving cars and selling their goods, calculating how many they have sold and doing mental sums and giving you change.

“If you just pause to think on the skills displayed, the flexibility and adaptability that is required to carry out those functions. I don’t know how many of us can do it.

“So, let nobody come and tell me that Nigerians are not skillful, let them not also come and tell me that they are not enterprising. If that is not a display of skills and a display of enterprise then you know what it is.”

Governor Fashola, however, lamented that such skills were unfortunately wrongly deployed to unsustainable business, adding that the state government is determined to divert such skills and enterprise to a more promising and sustainable business model.

scribble: if na dat one u dey note, ur whole notebok and jotter go soon pull. they plenty for nigeria, even ya own household.

but fact of the matter is its not about who the cia/usa thinks is capitalistic...the us will actually prefer that we separate so they can sell both sides arms and finally put a base in the niger delta (forget shale)

i dont know what will happen in 2015, i just hope it doesnt get too bloody
How right u are about fashola sympathizers but nobody 4 ma house like the man. Must of my house members are just nonchalant, they no send.
About shale, I sabi say many people like u still dey think say Nigeria oil dey impt. Let me bust ur bubble here, nigeria is regarded by the international community as a failed state. U here here say EU recently put a ban on all exported oil and gas from west Africa (Nigeria to be precise). Them talk say na make them check would theft. Then come talk say ok, them go make oil from west African contraband but only if an original certificate of purchase I'd produced by the oil companies cos them sabi say these oil companies dey patronize oil bunkering.
So back to shale, u Neva hear say china done already invest more than some 10/11 round figures into shale production. Recently, england show for documentary land way them serve commit for shale oil and gas, the land was more than 200 hectares of open space and them talk say them go invest some billion, but say na beginners stage them dey. USA down also begin experimentation but no one talk wet in dem dey do.
To cut long story short. These people sabi say naija oil no go last more that 20 years so them done begin prepare for the future so that them go ready once African oil finish. So pls understand that naija oil is immaterial.
Family › Re: My Husband Is Too Dirty. I Want A Seperate Room by drnoel: 12:04am On Jul 24, 2013
LadyCCP: I never knew i would bring this to Nairaland.
We have been married for about 2years now and have a child. We had a distant relationship so we didn't really live together for me to notice his dirty habit. I moved to his location few months after our wedding and since then, it beena terrible experience for me. He is just too dirty. doesn't wash his hands after using the toilet even when there are urine drops on his hands, he just wipes with his trousier, we have two batherooms, one for each room. Initially we were sharing one bathroom but I had to stop using it because of him. After toiletting, he will not washer with brush even when there is water. soap and brush and the toilet bowl is splattered with his feaces. He said its beneath him to wash the toilet, that how can a man wash the toilet? I had to switch to my ownership bathroom which thankfully has a toilet. He uses his for as long as 3months without washing neither toilet or bathroom. I was washing it before but I just had to stop when he said its beneath him to wash his own toilet, that its a woman's duty.

Secondly he is too unkempth and lives a scattered life, throws clothes anywhere, can wear one sleeping trousier for one month,after sex, he will use d same trousier to wipe his dicccck and still wear it, can sleep on an unmade bed for as long as possible. Never makes the bed insisting its s duty of a woman to make the bed everynight. Most times when he sleeps before me, I wake him up so I will make the bed, he will ask why didn't I make the bed before he slept, that I should make only my part I want to sleep on with our baby. Its all irritating and the worse of all is after I complain like forever, he says its the nature of their tribe man that they are used to dirtyness. I should get used to it. I dated a man from his tribe before I met him and that man is a direct opposite, neat to a fault. So I know its not an issue of him being from that tribe (edited).

This man will drink satchet water, and leave the satchet lying about for days, I was picking up all his trash before but I have since stopped after he repeatedly said that its my duty to pick up the dirt he throws anywhere he likes. He will have a trash basket right infront of him but will still drop dirt on the bare floor.


Early Last month, a nurse came around to take his blood sample for some test cos he wasnt feeling well, till now as i am writing this, the cotton wool he used to wipe the blood from the skin surface is still lying on his part of the wardrobe.

I am the type that encourages brushing the teeth twice a day but my hubby has refused to be doing it. He has a little mouth odour and will not help himself. He is always rubbing his diccccckkk with his bare hands and uses same hands to touch everything in the house.


I sweep and mob the house regularly but he will just mess it up the minute am thru. We have a second room we reserved for our kids but from the look of things, I am considering setting the room up for myself.

The funny thing about this is that outside, he is a seen as a clean man and very very goodlooking but inside, he is a dirty pig.
my question to you is that. What is ur duty then in ur husbands house?

Politics › Re: Senate Denies Endorsing Child Marriage Law by drnoel: 10:27pm On Jul 23, 2013
sainty2k3: Its just a means of passively giving support to child marriage.
Cos this explanation means that the 13 year old wife of Yerima can vote whereas a 17 year old unmarried can't.
They are saying if u want ur 7yr old daughter to attain the constitutional 'full age' just give her out in marriage
That section needs review
It mean yarima married an underage who can vote. The fact that she is underage and married does not make her an adult even if she is to be regarded as one. It means yarima still broke the law by marring an underage.

Christianity Etc › Re: Pope Francis To Forgive Twitter Followers' Sins Online by drnoel:
Theblessed: [size=16pt]In fact this makes my blood boil!

When will Catholics get their heads together - learn and understand that no one can forgive 'sins' except "The Lord, JESUS CHRIST, THE ONLY SON OF GOD" Our Saviour and Redeemer.

Only Jesus can save and forgive sins!

He redeemed us with his precious blood thus, forgiving our sin - so where does Pope Francis come into this, to be able to forgive sins?

Catholics, please hear this now, you should wake up and smell the coffee - 'The Truth'

Only Jesus can Save,Redeems and forgives our multitudes of sins,no one else, gorit?

Stop distorting the truth of God by deceiving and deluding yourselves with false hope!

Pope Francis is a holy man of God - he is not not Jesus Christ rather, he is a servant of Jesus Christ and a servant can not forgive sins nor save the flock - get it and get it now!!
[/size]
U see how that thing u drank is making u do act out of xter. Tell me, how does an ordinary catholic go against the doctrines of the church he/she was born and raised with. Pls mind how u talk.

princesammmy: the worst thing that can be done to you is to be denied d previldge of reading what you have(the Bible). only God can forgive sin.

1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. 1:7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;
Do that in Ur pocket. The catholic church doctrine teach otherwise. U need to converse urself with it, then u'd understand better. U may even be converted to the true one God, if u allow urself be thought better. The catholic church is the true one church. All others are just following trying to do as they do and also trying to criticize what they don't understand.

Politics › Re: 12 Year Women Can Give Birth Safely-sheikh Abubakar Gumi by drnoel: 7:39pm On Jul 22, 2013
sambas: Respected Kaduna based Islamic cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Abubakar Gumi, has joined the fray on the issue of child bride by saying that women can deliver children at 12 safely and thus there isnt such a big deal with early marriage. Gumi made the revelation on his Facebook page.

as usual, NaijaPundit brings you the statement below;

WHO DETERMINES THE MARRIAGE AGE LIMIT?

Definitely it will not be a bunch of liberal senators in a country majority of its citizen are Muslims. Marriage is a sacrosanct religious contract. The secular constitution has already given, two consensual adults (biological) the consent to engage in sexual intercourse, so what is all this encroachment on religious sensitivities of people. It is truly mischievous.

On religious issues that are liable to different interpretation, Islam has accepted that only a medically scientific reason can alter a decision.

Medically, from the age of 12, some girls can be mothers. They can bear children and deliver them safely. Now in the west, despite the laws against underage marriage (less than 18), thousands of hundreds still gets pregnant out of illegal sexual activities. Islam as pragmatic Religion thus permit any individual, matured to engage in legal marriage to embrace all categories of human desires and protect teenagers from irresponsible pregnancy. A married pregnant teen is absolutely in safer socio-economic state of affairs than one in an illegitimate teen pregnancy.

“About 93,000 teenagers, 8,000 of them under the age of 16, become pregnant in Britain each year. Just over half the pregnancies of those under 16 end in abortion. In the West, only Canada, New Zealand and the United States have higher rates.” The Prime Minister Tony Blair on learning that two other 12- year-olds were pregnant by their teen-age boyfriends had to call for a "new national moral purpose" and in June 2000, the government announced a $96 million plan aimed at cutting in half the number of teen pregnancies. The government also plans a major overhaul of sex education and contraceptive services, which will be publicized more openly and made more accessible”. [CNN oct11,99.]

May Allah protect us all from the Dajjal of this era.

Politics › We’re Ready To See Amaechi – Presidency Says by drnoel(op): 5:32pm On Jul 21, 2013
The Presidency on Friday said it was in the best interest of Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State to heed the advice of the All Progressives Congress governors asking him to meet President Goodluck Jonathan on the crisis rocking the state.
The governors said this when they paid a visit to Amaechi and discussed the volatile security situation in Rivers on Thursday.

The governors were Mr. Babatunde Fashola (Lagos); Dr. Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti); Senator Abiola Ajimobi (Oyo); Mr. Rauf Aregbesola (Osun); and Senator Ibikunle Amosu (Ogun).

The entourage also had deputy governors; Mr. Eze Madumere (Imo); Dameshi Barua Luka (Nasarawa); and Alhaji Muktar Ankar (Zamfara), who represented their principals during the solidarity visit.

Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Ahmed Gulak, while reacting to the visit by the opposition governors to Port Harcourt in an interview with one of our correspondents, said the Presidency had no problem with the visit to Amaechi because free movement was part of the governors' constitutional right.

According to him, the Presidency would receive the governor if he decides to visit Aso Rock.

He said, "The governors who visited Amaechi have the constitutional right to move freely and decide who they will associate with.

"Don't forget that before that latest visit, four PDP governors from the North had paid a similar visit although they had issues with the people of the state who felt they were the ones pushing their governor.

"I think the eight governors advised him properly by asking him to seek ways of resolving the impasse.

"I am happy they told him the truth that media war will not solve the problem and that dragging the name of the President into it won't solve the crisis.

"I hope the governor will not squander the goodwill and that he will listen to the words of reasoning his colleagues gave him."

When asked whether the Presidency did not view the visit as an indication that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party might have lost Amaechi to the yet-to-be registered All Progressives Congress, Gulak said nobody was forcing the governor to remain in the PDP.

He said although Amaechi's claim to be a PDP member by face, the governor had for long been romancing opposition parties.

Gulak said, "I have always been saying it that nobody is forcing him (Amaechi) to remain in the PDP. He has the constitutional right to join any party he wants. It is his constitutional right.

"Everybody knows that he has a face of PDP but deep in him, he has been romancing opposition parties.

"But my advice for him is that he should not forget the 2007 court ruling on the basis of which he is occupying that seat. The verdict was that it was PDP that won the governorship seat and not Celestine Omehia.

"That means he is indebted to the PDP and the only way he can pay that debt is to continue to be loyal to the party."

On Friday, Amaechi, who spoke to SUNDAY PUNCH through his Commissioner for Information and Communications, Mrs. Ibim Semenitari, confirmed he would heed the advice of the APC governors.

The governor said there was nothing wrong with what his fellow governors had advised him to do.

Amaechi, however, did not state when he intended to visit the President.
